Just Peachy 5k & 10k

Date: Saturday, August 15, 2026

10K Start: 8:30 AM | 5K Start: 8:45 AM

Join the Grand Junction Sports Commission for the Just Peachy 5K & 10K  on Saturday, August 15th.  This fun run is great for anyone, from families to beginners, and anyone looking to challenge themselves. 

Historically, Just Peachy has been a part of Palisade Peach Fest; two years ago, we made the move to the Saturday before Peach Fest to help reduce our impact on the Town of Palisade. We love seeing the growth of both the Peach Fest and Just Peachy; however, this meant First Responders were stretched thin over the busy weekend. By moving race day, we were able to help relieve some of the stress and ensure the Police and Fire Departments can continue to provide top-tier services to both the residents and visitors. We understand that this means we will lose some of our friends who come to Palisade just for Peach Fest, but we hope you will make it out to support the Town of Palisade during Peach Days. 

Race registration includes an event t-shirt, finisher's medal, pancake breakfast, and more!  Cash prizes to the top three overall male and female winners, with age group awards as well.

As if this race wasn’t sweet enough, we are excited to announce that proceeds will benefit the Palisade Fire and Police Departments!

If you need to cancel, deferrals to the 2027 Just Peachy 5k/10k will be accepted through Friday 7/31. We will not be able to offer refunds or deferrals otherwise. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding.
